Stew,
You should have no problems with paralleling 2 headphones on the audio
output of the K3, with no need for any external mixer. If there is a
significant difference in the response (SPL) of the two headphones, that
may present a volume problem, in which case, some secondary
amplification may be required for one or the other set of headphones.
Since the gaming headset has a volume control, that alone may be
sufficient - try it and see what the result may be.

I want to have a second op listening to the sub rx on a separate pair of phones
(for 6m trophy, so same band). I've strung together 2 stereo sockets with one
fed from the right and the other from the left side of the front panel phone
output and this seems to works well. With the channels linked I get Main in
both ears in one headphone set and Sub in both ears in the other, and when the
sub rx is off there is Main in both.
I'll be using a Yamaha CM-500 and a gaming headset so I'm wondering if I should
be loading the audio with 2 headphones without any buffering etc. A cheap mixer
with separate amps would be good and may give better volume control although
the gamers have an inline volume control on the lead. A quick search however
hasn't found a mixer that separates the input channels.....
